Nicolas Jungers, the next step is to fully commit bisect from kernel 3.13 to 4.4 in order to identify the last good kernel commit, followed immediately by the first bad one. This will allow for a more expedited analysis of the root cause of your issue. Could you please do this following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection ?
Please note, finding adjacent kernel versions is not fully commit bisecting. Also, the kernel release names are irrelevant for the purposes of bisecting. It is most helpful that after the fix commit (not kernel version) has been identified, you then mark this report Status Confirmed. Thank you for your help. ** Tags added: needs-bisect -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1406810 Title: screen is garbled with 14.10 (was fine with 14.04) Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: On a iMac Alu 2010, when upgrading from 14.04 desktop to 14.10 desktop or installing 10.10 server (SSH package only) the screen shows thin horizontal lines moving on a black background. /etc/X11/xorg.conf is absent (using default config), /var/log/Xorg.0.log doesn't show any error beside the lack of the fglrx module.
